Flink

It's the 89th minute, the score is level, an entire nation is losing it's mind... and Flink customers are calmly adding cucumbers to their baskets. 🥒 Believe it or not, this is what actually happened across Germany just before midnight during the world cup this summer. ⚽ We extended our hub hours until midnight on match days, fully braced for a flood of beer and crisp orders. What we got instead was... fresh produce. One night cherry tomatoes, water and milk were topping the charts. Another night, it was whole milk, water, and cucumbers. Beer and chips made an appearance, sure, but they definitely weren't the main event. Beyond the comedy, there’s a real takeaway here: That final hour before midnight represented almost entirely new demand, not just regular orders shifted later. People genuinely needed late-night groceries, and they finally had a way to get them. 🛍️ 🚲 "The numbers surprised us. We knew match days drive demand, but seeing that last hour used so heavily, and almost entirely new, showed us there is a real need that usually goes unmet." says Lucas Rietz, Managing Director of Flink Germany. So whether it’s a cold beer, a bag of crisps, or a genuinely urgent cucumber — we’re here when you need it. Be honest: what’s the strangest thing you’ve ordered after the final whistle? 👇

Zwei starke Teams, ein Ziel: Bestleistung für Gießen! 🏀🛒 Kaum in Gießen gelandet, sind wir schon stolzer Teil der Community. Wir freuen uns sehr über die Partnerschaft mit den GIESSEN 46ers!

Gießen, the numbers finally add up! 🚀 With our second hub launch of July we are thrilled to call you our newest home! Gießen built the world's first hands-on maths museum. So allow us to do some maths. 🧮 The equation of a grocery trip rarely adds up: the drive, the parking, the queue, then the bags up the stairs. Time you don't get back. So we're changing the formula. Whatever's on your list: fresh produce, the brands you reach for, your favourite local items. We show up at your door in minutes, carried by a local hub team and riders who actually know the city. Giving you back the time you need! 🛒 🚲 Lucas Rietz, Managing director of Flink Germany: "Our second launch for the summer in Gießen is a really exciting milestone for the whole team. We can't wait to get to know the city and provide the quick and reliable grocery delivery the community needs."

Quick commerce has grown up. And so have we. 🩷 When Flink launched, we set out to make grocery shopping faster, easier, and more convenient for people in cities. That vision hasn't changed — but the way we pursue it has become sharper, more focused, and more sustainable. After navigating one of the most competitive markets, Flink has reached EBITDA profitability, secured €100M in fresh growth capital, and is ready for the next chapter of growth. What drives our confidence? Online grocery in Germany is still at just ~3.5% penetration — compared to 14% in the UK. The opportunity ahead of us is enormous. We're building for the long run. Focused, profitable, and ready to grow. 🚀 🔗 Read the full interview with our CEO Julian Dames in WirtschaftsWoche. https://lnkd.in/dUjnQHjX
